Title: How to make animals animate?
Post by: Flare Star on December 10, 2012, 09:14:39 pm: I have recently downloaded Jay's animal pack and I don't know how to make them animate. Is it something with the skeleton file I need to do for them to move?

Post by: Ingredient on December 12, 2012, 08:58:48 pm: No, seriously I really don't believe you can. You would have to hack into the game files itself and all the coding to be able to add the animation would seriously be a lot or not possible.

May I ask but who was this person? How did you find out about her animations? I've seen no videos or sites with animated Fearlheart mesh's besides the feline and canine models.

Meshes, or particles?
There's a difference.

Personally I've never seen an animated mesh, but I have heard some things 'bout it being possible n' such.
Not sure though..

Post by: -Mink- on December 14, 2012, 09:46:02 pm: I'd just like to point out that it is theoretically possible to animate meshes for a map by posing the mesh frame-by-frame and setting the materials to also go frame-by-frame one-by one, but it's very tedious.

Post by: Ingredient on December 14, 2012, 10:13:57 pm: Yes, that is how you animate mesh's but it's not exactly how you bring them into maps ;)

I guess it can be done but it's not something everyone could probably do easily.
